Esstorlogue

📖 The Scoop

The book, Esstorlogue, is a collection of essays, stories, and travelogues. Some essays are objective whereas some are subjective, though the elements of each other have often crossed their boundaries. Stories are often taken from rustic life of far off villages which were devoid of amenities. Relations in combined family which are now breathing their last can be perceived in the story. The three travelogues which are narratives of experiences of the author when he took his journey to the South, to the East and to the West, show the different life styles and cultures of India. The views are totally personal, although the remarks have been as far as possible kept objective. In writing essays, the writer finds himself a little tense whereas in stories, he feels somewhat at ease. He has to take care that every effect has some cause and in weaving the plot, he has to see that no unwanted threads appear on the surface. The author has tried to draw the word picture of the scenes of different places that he had toured to fill in the gap of the real pictures which could not be possible in absence of a handy camera or an Android phone. The genre is non-fiction but the readers will take enjoyment like that of fiction.

Genre: Fiction / City Life (fancy, right?)
